Choosing a theme for your trivia game gives you a ton of inspiration for your team name. Movies, history, sports, pop culture, whatever the topic, brainstorm puns or creative ideas that tie back to it. Example: hosting a movie trivia game? Try something like "Lights, Camera, Action."
Use Humor
Dropping humor into your team name is a surefire way to grab attention and get a laugh from other players. Go for puns, wordplay, or inside jokes that tie into the trivia game or your teammates.
